Abstract :
In this paper we present a novel application-assisted checkpoint-restart mechanism for Java applications. The checkpoint-restart API provides the application developers with full control over what data needs to be check-pointed. The novelty of our system is that it allows different checkpoint periods for different data items. Our implementation makes full use of the Java Reflection API.
